Anellotech Inc., a green innovation and technology company, has formed an alliance with IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) and its subsidiary Axens - an international provider of advanced technologies, catalysts, adsorbents and services. The three companies announced that through the alliance they will commercialise a new technology that is capable of producing low cost bio-based benzene, toluene and paraxylene using Anellotech's process of Catalytic Fast Pyrolysis (CFP) of non-food biomass.
The new technology can address large-scale units and produce purified aromatics streams that are suitable for modern derivative production processes. It will help encourage competitive production of bio-aromatics from renewable resources with lower energy consumption and lower CO2 emissions as compared to petroleum based counterparts.
The three companies plan to achieve process development and commercialization of the CFP technology in the shortest possible time by combining research and development with commercial scale-up knowledge and resources.
The new technology is expected to be ready for industrial implementation in 2019.
Axens will take up the responsibility to market and license the technology globally. It will also provide basic engineering design and start-up services. Anellotech, Axens and IFPEN will conduct on-going research and development for continual process improvement and to support licensing efforts.
Dr. David Sudolsky, Founder, President & CEO of Anellotech Inc will talk more about this alliance via his talk on 'Low cost production of bio-based Paraxylene from non-food biomass' at 16th GEPET (Greater Europe PET Resin Trade, Applications & Recycling) on 10-12 June, 2015 in Lyon.
